A rarely used air strip in Ziro valley of Arunachal Pradesh, India.

"The landing ground at Ziro was constructed in the years following India's independence. The first aeroplane to land was an Otter in 1951 and the next year - in 1952, a Dakota landed after lengthening the landing ground. At present it is being upgraded to Advanced Landing Ground (ALG) and the maintenance work is in full swing."
